Twenty-two shopping days until Christmas! If that’s something you’re into! Someone somewhere brought up the fact that Louisville City’s team store didn’t sell Christmas tree ornaments, and I agree – that’s something that should exist.

I haven’t done much, if any, of my gift shopping yet. That’s mainly because my wife does most of that for me, while she also works a demanding full-time management position, runs our entire house’s schedule, keeps the kids fed and clothed, and looks great doing it. I am a lazy slobfailure with a lucky streak, is what I’m trying to say.

On to the links:

• Can’t get enough of the Memphis 901 news? Good, because there’s more: former USMNT GK great Tim Howard is taking over as GM.
• The USL Championship might be expanding into Rhode Island – if they can get a stadium deal done. Seems like I’ve heard that story about [insert city] before…
• Vote Niall McCabe for USL Championship’s Fans’ Choice Goal of the Year! Do it early and often! Switching browsers and cleaning out your cache helps! No, I’ve never done that before!
